Solution 2

You're using the wrong event for this. The correct choices would be either TextChanged or LostFocus. You just handle one of those events and kick off the code you need to to fill in the other TextBox.

Spot on. Textchanged is the way to do it.

Solution 3

I always move the mous cursor out of the way when I'm entering text, so that's a bad design. You should only update other controls when the current control looses focus (or a button is pushed), so at that point, you'd need to handle either the LostFocus event, or the Leave event.

Sure, you're right, the design is not acceptable. My 5.

Solution 1

You can use JavaScript to handle the mouseout event for the textbox then extract the value and populate the other textbox with it. JQuery will make some of this easier.

How much of our time have you wasted by not stating what you really wanted in the first place?

There are plenty of examples of calling C# from JavaScript, look for them

That works.
